How To Draw A Mermaid

in #art8 years ago


Mermaids have so many variations. They are such fascinating creatures. I'm going to teach you how to draw a fairly basic one, Then you can use your knowledge to build on your mermaids.

Draw Stick figure Mermaid!

Add boob circles

Shoulder circles, Arms circles, Do a panty shape thingy at the bottom for her lower half of her body.

Add fins

Shape her tail using your guidelines

Hair

Face and hand circles

Shape her tummy and collar bones

Add some detail

Give her some cleavage, Some ruffles, and part of her fin area

Start shading

Her face is far away so the shading doesn't have to be as detailed

More shades

And more

Add detail to her fins

Exactly the way you want them. I am choosing a snake, fish scale like pattern

More detail

Completion

How did your Mermaid turn out?

Sort:  

THAT ... is a nice piece of tail.
